“A group of parents has raised over $11,000 to sue a Florida school district to stop kids from being forced to wear masks.
The online fundraiser demanded the Sarasota County district give “each family the right and freedom to make medical decisions independently” for the “physical, emotional and social well-being of our children.”
“Children and teachers should not be REQUIRED to wear masks in order to have access to a brick and mortar education,” the group calling itself the “Concerned Parents of Sarasota County” said.
“We are asking you to help us tell the Sarasota County School District ‘NO’! They have overstepped their authority and must be reminded that they are accountable to the voting public,” the fundraiser said.
By Thursday morning, the group had raised $11,300 through 187 donors — more than the $11,000 it sought to get to cover legal action.”
